i bought my Canon digital IXUS 100 LS last five month ago at Singapore before i came UK. One day when i press the on button planing to take pictures,its doesn't work.The screen all blank it only show few word below the screen asked me to restart the camera and my lens is coming out. Normally when i turn off the camera the lens will get in together but it don't.So now my camera doesn't work and the lens not going in.
I have a few different cameras so to state the obvious I will tell you some of my cameras will not go on with out the sd card or what ever card is required also some of my cameras will but they have built in limited memory. The lens check for a button on the camera and an see if it will release then try to place it back on it may have just come loose and needs to be put on again to make the adjustment follow you book on how to release and replace the lens. Anyway just thought it might help. also, remove the battery and put it back in, unless it is a rechargable bat. that came with the camera then it may not have been charged so you may need to. hope this helps so much for my limited knowledge. GOOD LUCK
